The Imaging Program at the 7th World Congress highlighted the versatility and diagnostic power of the current and upcoming imaging tools in Pediatric Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery. Several experts presented interesting as well as practical data on the use of 2D and 3D Echocardiography, magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography in the fetus, child, and adult with congenital heart disease. Bridging sessions coupled use of these imaging modalities and screening practices in patients with acquired heart disease. Hot topics included nomenclature of ventricular septal defects, the challenging diagnosis of double outlet right ventricle, cardiac tumors, and imaging of aortapathies. Several talks concentrated on the quantitative assessment of ventricular function and reviewed numerous exciting new modalities that currently serve as research tools. In summary, Imaging Sessions truly represented how far we have advanced the field of Imaging in Pediatric Cardiology and Cardiovascular Surgery.
第七届世界大会的影像学项目突出了当前及即将出现的成像工具在小儿心脏病学和心脏外科中的多功能性及诊断能力。几位专家展示了关于二维和三维超声心动图、磁共振成像以及计算机断层扫描在患有先天性心脏病的胎儿、儿童及成人中的应用的有趣且实用的数据。衔接环节探讨了这些成像方式在后天性心脏病患者中的联合使用及筛查实践。热点话题包括室间隔缺损的命名、右心室双出口的挑战性诊断、心脏肿瘤以及主动脉病变的成像。几场讲座聚焦于心室功能的定量评估，并回顾了众多目前作为研究工具的令人兴奋的新方式。总之，影像学会议真实地展现了我们在小儿心脏病学和心血管外科影像学领域取得的进展。
